I don't suppose there is a way to query the freshclam daemon for
status?  That would be nice for writing a Nagios plugin to monitor it. 
The query could return the last exist status and the date/time of last
update (or seconds since then).  Maybe the number of virus defs?

Just a thought that occurred to me when I read the discussion of
daemontools.

I suppose I could parse the freshclam log, but asking a daemon is so
much easier :)

Thanks!
